StormyRob so nice bits will be going to a good home..keep it in the family so to speak. Have you considered adding some Yellow and Red to your paintwork. You deserve a bit of good luck. A couple of nice builds going on here. I absolutely love and adore what Rob has done with the Blue one. Truly tremendous and very tastefully done keeping up with the traditional look and colours. When you think there was only IIRC a half dozen of those Spondon frames made combined with the swingarm being even more rare, this makes it a bit history and very special indeed.

Thanks. Chuffed I have the opportunity to have something so rare. Obviously all credit to Rob who manages to pull everything out of the hat. Quite amazing really....and probably not over yet!

it makes a change for me, iv spent years and all iv pulled outa hats is rabbits or turds .

@ Carl. its going to a good home and look forward to seeing them both out together..

Omg this man is finding all this great stuff over here
I need to start following fab

You wont be able to catch him now

and as if the worlds not mad enough im waiting to hear back about another mori race engine thats surfaced

ok ok now the dust has settled in my wee head... first of before this other bike was found i had some pipes on the way. iv never heard mori cans in real life. lord save me the evilest things iv ever heard..














they are on a set of harries hangers atm. needs lifting up a bit but i just wanted to hear them..


now the new wagon turns out to be a giver... the motor in it that i know has only been ridden a few times since it went over to rogers about two years ago? well i called Roger today,had a long chat, what a nice guy by the way . he remembers the engine well as the previous owner used to be on the fone with him a bit getting advice and getting forks and stuff done. well long story short the new motor i have is prob better than the one i was chasing as its had all the headwork etc and has been stuffed full of nice lumpy mori engine bits.. i am MADE UP to say the least.... the bike needed the balls to go with the chassis and body work i busted my balls doing..

happy man? i should think so.

Pipes look just right with the blue bike. It's coming together nicely

The engine Al is getting swapped over the winter into the blue one and im done. .

time to enjoy the sh1t outa them.

That bike looks amazing, the Moriwaki cans finish it off so well

Good news on the info from Roger
Roger Ditchfield is a true gent, nice you had the chance to have a chat with him.

cheers sir. yeah he had said to fone him and it was nice to see he took plenty of time to yarn away to some pleb he has never met whos build a bike in a shed. not many in his position would bother....

That's better now get yourself a coerce sprocket cover or put an original dark one on that doesn't look like a T-bag

lol..i dont even like tea lol...i think il put a dark one on or one of the later ones. the problem with a coerce one is because the ears are on the frame that little casing is about 2 inches smaller than a normal storm casing so it would mean cutting it to bits to make it fit

Swapping engines in winter lmao ,
I'd give you two weeks till the itch is unbearable
